What will a 2020 NFL season look like?

Recommended Posts

With this pandemic dragging on without a vaccine in sight and a drug combo un-tested, will this season even happen? And if it does and the NFL is determined to play, what will it look like? Obviously they can't be having a stadium full of fans elbow to elbow. Is there anyway they can make it work without a delay or total cancelation??

 

Opinions and ideas please...

Impossible to predict. Maybe some of these early promising anti-viral trials turns into an effective treatment for this thing and a lot of the danger subsides. Maybe summer temps and humidity combined with social distancing measures largely curbs the wildfire like spread of this thing and then it doesn't come roaring back this fall. Then again, maybe it does.

We'll just have to wait and see. I don't think there's any outcome that would surprise me from season played out as usual to games played in empty stadiums to no NFL season at all next season.

If they played in empty stadiums with only TV broadcast, wonder how they would handle PSL holders?

Maybe the Season Ticket scenerio goes nationwide  as a stand alone streaming service with higher rates? Would you buy into this concept to have NFL football with empty stadiums to still have a season?

The GOAT. By the way the flu has killed way more people.

So let me get this straight...

You seek validation about a global virus that is in its early stages--one that medical doctors warn us to avoid---by quoting an NFL player?  Did you know that the rate of full recovery from the flu is 100 times higher than this virus?  Did you know that the flu stat is a quote that many cited after they spewed for weeks that it was a hoax?

While you tell us not to watch the news, I can tell you right now which news channel you watch.

    • Ok--I have seen some sample items, and I would like to see something (if possible) measures on field intelligence--maybe how quickly you can grasp a playbook or absorb film session adjustments...Back when we had Morrison as team president and Hurney as GM, I offered to assess (as part of my research in education requirement at a University) emotional intelligence and learning styles of players to help coaches teach more effectively.  Morrison loved it and contacted me about it.  Hurney was not interested, and it fell through the cracks.  My pitch?  If only 50% of first-rounders become successful NFL players and that number drops significantly, can you tell me that you are effectively measuring talent?  Morrison thought it was a good point and wanted to do something that might improve long-term success rates--that would impact the cap management, etc.  Marty, according to Morrison, said he was not interested at this time and if so, he would want a football guy to do it.  (I told Morrison that I played in college and Hurney, a sports reporter at one time, did not. (He told me that Hurney played as a Guard in college--who knew?) Any way, about that time, Morrison left (2017) and the idea was dropped.  I reached back out a year later or so to Marty was still not interested.  A few days later, his wife accused him of assault or something, so I dropped it.
    • Pretty sure they still do the Wonderlic they just don't publicly release the scores.
    • I just thought he was under the radar--but thanks for opening our eyes to him.  I think we should have better measures for intelligence--such as reaction time, angles, etc. Legette is raw as heck, for example, and his RAS was very high.  We used to do the Wonderlic (which was not great) but to know how effectively a player makes on field decisions would be great.
